Aaron Schock’s Dad: ‘Two Years from Now, He’ll Be Successful, if He’s Not in Jail’

Aaron Schock’s Dad: ‘Two Years from Now, He’ll be Successful, if He’s Not in Jail’ (Mediaite)

Rep. Aaron Schock, who resigned from Congress yesterday over allegations that he’d improperly spent taxpayer money, has at least one person in that corner. Sadly, it’s not Taylor Swift. But it is his dad!

And apparently, his dad is firmly in his son’s corner. Ish.

“Two years from now he’ll be successful, if he’s not in jail,” Dr. Richard Schock told a reporter from Chicago’s ABC7 outside his home in Peoria, Ill. “If they’re going to convict him on paperwork, then they’re going to convict him. That’s their privilege. They’re out to get him and they’re making issues out of things that really shouldn’t be issues.”
